Henry Stanley Monck, 1st Earl of Rathdowne and 2nd Viscount Monck (26 July 1785 – 20 September 1848), was the son of Charles Monck, 1st Viscount Monck, and Anne Quin. On 28 July 1806, he married Lady Frances Mary Trench, daughter of William Trench, 1st Earl of Clancarty, and his wife Anne, Countess of Clancarty (née Gardiner). They had 11 daughters.

  • Lady Anne Florinda Monck (died 1876) married William Mulveney
  • Lady Elizabeth Louise Mary Monck (died 16 June 1892), married her first cousin Charles Monck, 4th Viscount Monck

  • Lady Frances Isabella Monck (died 9 June 1871), married Owen Blayney Cole
